Thinking About Trading My C6 ZO6 For A V Hey all!
So just like the title says, i found a CTS-V for what seems like a decent price.
I currently have a 2007 C6 ZO6. I am just curious if any of you can give any insight on how the car is to drive everyday like gas mileage, road noise, exhaust drone Etc. My wife and I have a 14 week old baby girl. Does it work well with toting around the stroller, car seat, diaper bag Etc? Thanks for all your time and help. I appreciate all the answers.

My perspective (currently own both)
The CTS-V is MUCH more comfortable, and VERY quiet. The amount of insulation / sound deadener they used is amazing. The V doesn't get as great of gas mileage, but it's doable. The trunk is HUGE so you'll fit the stroller and all no problem.

my cousin got one in feb of this year and he daily drives it in syracuse ny. He has a winter wheel and tire setup and the car is lowered and he was happy with it in the snow . Hes got two kids 7 and 4 and a wife and it fits all the stuff. Its a little smaller than his previous g8gt but the power makes up for that .
Also he is in love with the recaro seats .
The only issue i see is a large rear facing car seat . We have a graco and i know for a fact that wont fit rear facing for my 3 yr old and me driving the cts v . Just not enough room .
So either turn the child front facing which isnt as safe or get a smaller seat . But im 6'2" and it wouldn't work with the car seat rear facing .
